We have to do things our own way because we are not exactly like other communities, yes we have many similarities but in the end we have different budget restraints and demographics to deal with, I do hope you will see the other major new changes coming to the fair this year that stemmed from feedback from our own community. Sometimes it is better to learn from others who have made mistakes and not have to repeat those same mistakes as part of the learning process, as with anything change will always meet with some resistance, hopefully the overall changes are for the better and have a positive effect on the whole community.

I totally agree, if you believe in your thoughts and words, and are here for good knowledge based communication with other community members, do not be afraid to put your name on your voice, Thank you, Sam Waldron, proudly raised in the Walla Walla Valley.
